Even without GTA I think it will be a very strong year sans Japan.
15m minimum. I think Wolverine, Fable, Forza 6, Halo etc reflects a stronger year than 2025 software wise and there's plenty of potentially big 3rd party stuff that could make waves like Phantom Blade for its Asian/Chinese market.
I think you will see Playstation eat more of MS sales. People who were waiting for a certain time to jump into this Xbox generation (GTA, next gen only Halo, Gears, COD, Elderscrolls etc) will now just get a PS5.
Some have gone PC but I think plenty remain primary console gamers and that will offset some of PS's natural decline.
GTA then blows this wide open to 20m if it lands well. I have no doubt Sony will be over supplying PS5s due to the ram situation. They want as many produced now at current or pre agreed prices.
